A) The mechanism of injury involves acute hyperextension of the shoulder while the neck and head are forced in the same direction.
B) Symptoms include temporary weakness, pain, paresthesias, and decreased sensation of the distal extremity.
C) The injury involves traction forces on the spinal cord’s dorsal columns.
D) Most cases cause permanent neurologic deficits.
E) The condition is associated with overuse injury of the knees.
Answer and Discussion
The answer is B. (Symptoms include temporary weakness, pain, paresthesias, and decreased sensation of the distal extremity.)
Mechanisms of “burners syndrome .” :
(A) Traction to the brachial plexus from ipsilateral shoulder depression and contralateral lateral neck flexion.
(B) Direct blow to the supraclavicular fossa at Erb's point.
(C)Compression of the cervical roots or brachial plexus from ipsilateral lateral flexion and hyperextension.
Burner’s syndrome is seen mostly in football players and results from a tackling or blocking injury.
The injury occurs when the contact shoulder is depressed and the head and neck are forced in the
opposite direction of contact. The traction-type forces placed on the brachial plexus lead to variable symptoms of weakness, pain, paresthesias, limited motion, and decreased sensation of the affected extremity. Diminished reflexes may also be seen.
The condition should be treated with caution, and cervical disc or bony injury should be ruled out. In most cases, the symptoms last only a few minutes; however, the athlete should not return to play until a complete evaluation can be performed and the symptoms resolve.
Hello, my name is Betty. i was diagnosed of HIV virus 4 years back. Before then, i was dating this Derrick guy. we had something great going on. Our love life only lasted for 8 months. the sixth and seven month of our relationship, i began feeling very weak every now and then. But i never suspected anything until I kept on experiencing different symptoms like having sore throats, constant headache, body weakness e.t.c. I decided to go for a medical check up. I was tested HIV positive. when the doctor broke the news to me, it was as if my whole world had crumbled. it dawned on me then that Derrick has been lying to me. i was very mad to an extent i almost committed suicide. But there was nothing i could do, other than weep and weep. ever since then, i have been spending heavily on medications, going from one medical clinic or the other so I can look healthy. Though since i was a kid, i love herbs a lot. i take herbal tea with grandma while growing so i am quite familiar with herbs. early last year, i was on the internet and on a particular health blog, to check for herbal medication as alternative. I saw many comments and read many testimonies. Until i came across a particular testimony on how Dr.ugo cured a patient from herpes simplex virus using pure natural herbs. i reached out to the doctor because I also was thinking Herpes had no cure. I told him about my HIV status.He encouraged me not to panic that he will help me get my deliverance. he prepared some herbs and sent them to me. The herbs were in four 70ml bottles and I took them morning and night. i used as he directed, and in less than three weeks, i started having appetite to eat plenty of food and i gained back my strength. the fourth week,I consumed all the herbal meds. He encouraged me to go for a test which i did. This time, the result was negative. I quickly contacted the doctor and informed him of the news. I immediately asked him to prepare for Derrick too. He did and sent it. Today, me and Derrick are HIV free. All thanks goes to God Almighty for healing us through Dr.Ugo. if you are having any kind of sickness at all, Dr.Ugo is the right person to talk to and i assure you, you will be glad you did. His email: ugoherbalhome@gmail.com you can also write him on WhatsApp +2348104990619.
